Link US funding to support of US policy in UN

Recommendations on United Nations and international organizations:

Evaluate membership in every international organization. The US must honestly assess whether each organization works as it was intended, its mission is focused and attainable and
not dependent on "good faith" that does not exist, and it advances US interests. This should include an end to funding for those, like the UN Human Rights Council, that are irredeemably ineffective or otherwise work against U.S. interests.

Link development assistance to a country's support for US policy priorities in the UN and other important international organizations. Since 2000, about 87% of the recipients of US development aid have voted against the
US most of the time on non-consensus votes in the UN General Assembly, and over 72% have voted against the US most of the time on non-consensus votes deemed important by the Department of State.

Don't dilute US influence by expanding UN Security Council

Recommendations on United Nations and international organizations:

Reject EU attempts to constrain U.S. global leadership. Maintain strong relations with individual European nation states; reject the
EU's "multilateralisation of multipolarity" approach to refashion the international system; defend U.S. sovereignty against problematic EU-backed international treaties such as the Law of the Sea Treaty, the Ottawa Convention, and the Rome
Statute of the International Criminal Court; oppose the EU's attempts to lift its arms embargo on China; and investigate EU funding streams in the U.S. to ensure compliance with U.S. law.

Resist expansion of the Security Council. Expanding the council would contribute to gridlock, dilute U.S. influence, and likely result in less support for U.S. interests.
